Reviews2021 Next Generation Indie Awards Winner in Series (Fiction) 2021 CIBA Fiction Series Book Awards First Place Winner 2018 New York City Big Book Award, Historical Fiction Distinguished Favorite "The crash of 1929, speakeasies and musical reviews, artistic challenges, family secrets, secret desires, romantic complications-these are just a few of the ingredients in Jill G. Hall's wonderful new novel, The Silver Shoes. Clair and Anne are two compelling characters born decades apart into drastically different circumstances. Each must face her own dilemmas and neither has an easy solution." -Judy Reeves, author of Wild Women, Wild Voices "A pair of glittery shoes links two women nearly a century apart in this enchanting story by Jill G. Hall." -Janice Steinberg, author of The Tin Horse and dance journalist "What a delight! Hall captivates and pulls the reader in; the story is as sparkling and fun as the silver shoes that connect the two women together-pure entertainment!" - Michelle Cox, Author of the Henrietta and Inspector Howard series "You'll be cheering for both of these heroines as they insist on finding their own way as artists, no matter what the men in their lives want them to be. Hall's descriptions of Anne's visual art, inspired by the silver shoes, are delicious." -Janice Steinberg, art journalist and author of The Tin Horse
